The HEADERS

Today was something new for all of us. In the over 6 years that Jayson and I have been together, we have never eaten sweet potato, never bought it, never ordered it, never even looked at it at the grocery store.

In many sites that I read, sweet potato sticks was something that was recommended to give to your baby if you are doing baby led weaning. Today was the day.

I looked for a recipe online. This was it:

1 sweet potato, medium size2 tsp cinnamonolive oil cooking spray

Peel the potato.Cut it into "fries" - around 1/4in thick and 4in long.Put the strips in a bowl and spray very lightly with the oil.Sprinkle on the cinnamon, then toss together.Line a baking sheet with foil and place your sweet potato fries on it in a single layer.Bake at 350 deg F, 180 deg C for around 45 mins.

So, I followed the recipe.

I don't think that Jayson or I will be eating this again, however, Lily seemed to enjoy it.

She has to empty the bowl first.

She looked at them for a long time, we weren't sure that she was going to end up eating any!

After her first bite:

She seemed to like the sweet potato sticks after a few bites.

She loves to examine what she is about to put in her mouth (only when it's food!) otherwise, she just shoves it in, no matter what it is!
